Eclipse can be used anyway. Code can be copied from JBB and pasted directly to source folder. Plugin would just make that easier. And furthermore, when eclipse in hand, the tasks given can be more complicated and development would replicate more the real situation. Eclipse plugin may even give the opportunity to create "Eclipse efficient usage" test.
What do you think about these thoughts?

Re: Eclipse plugin for programming exam
Why Eclipse? Why not IntelliJ, NetBeans, etc? I like that people can use whatever IDE they want.Re: Eclipse plugin for programming exam
It's a nice idea.We also had the idea to integrate with an on-line development environment (don't remember the name).
An eclipse plug-in would be nice, but we don't have the manpower to develop it ourselves. We can provide web services to help somebody else who would like to develop it as an "open source" part of JavaBlackBelt.
Others have asked for an easier way to create questions and make the jar file with the correct format. Should it be an ant task, an Eclipse plug-in,... ?
I personally don't mind if the plug-in is Eclipse only because it will not be large anyway and if other IDE users are too upset, they will make a version for their IDE afterwards.
Kind regards.
